Been a while since I've seen one of these. K5 Chalet

This one has suffered from the Ohio salt attack. I remember when I lived up there the local game warden drove one.

Thinking the same thing. Makes me wonder about the clean title

The title of the add says 1976, so It's probably just a simple typo in the description. Sheeesh not everything is a scam, lol.

Agreed. A simple typo, I didn't even notice it.

I always love the "would make a great father son project", throwing the warm fuzzies out there to help sell. This ad isn't the first time I've seen that used.

Were there really only 700 made? I can remember at least two running around here about 20 years ago, seems like the odds of seeing more than one in a tiny town in the middle of nowhere would be slim with that limited production.

The registry spans about 1800 serial numbers between the GMC Casa Grandes and the Blazer Chalets.

Most are 1977s.
